Distance Place-own landscape poem

Distance Place







Far away from there the sun is rising.
He hardly shinnies on the sky.
He feels tried, he sit on the mountain's top to relax.
He sit on the mountain like a children,
he curiosity look around.
His comfortable chair- the big mountain is on the center of the water.
There is a widely water area in front of he.
The water reflection orange sunshine.
The water is like a soft silk, smooth-bumpiness.
Just like the people's life, seem wateriness, but the chance and change are always hidden in the corner in the life.
He elongates his neck to see the beautiful view.
The humidity blow on the face of him.
The obscure air like a veiling of the beautiful girl - mystery and dangerous.
Far away from lake there is a rocks pile.
The rocks are strange;
they are like the waves on the sea.
When the wind through the rock the rocks are groan.
Everything is silent.
“Oh!” his exclamations, “It’s time to go.”
Far away the orange sun shinnies slowly.

Essay





In the middle ages of the Europe. European were already have comfortable life and develop technology, and they also have flourishing industry and commerce. When people already have comfortable life they also wanted to know more about the place they live or even is the world. The European were not exception. Some people want to exploration. They make the king allow their advice, then they starting their exploration. Exploration gave these countries some benefits. It also gave the explorers Honorary and riches this made some explorers indulge in exploration. In fact, exploration didn’t gave the countries that been explored peace and happiness. The European’s explorers just in order to themselves. They didn’t think of other. They just wanted to get riches. They wanted use the easiest and the cheapest ways to get riches, so they are cheat the native people. Such as use knife to exchange fur and beaver. These unfair trade creative misunderstanding and conflict. Exploration create misunderstanding and conflict, because exploration is to force-land other countries, because exploration is to plundering the wealth of other countries, because exploration always in order to colony.


Exploration can create conflict and misunderstanding, because exploration always in order to colony. In deeply religious age, Europeans wanted to spread knowledge of Christianity and to contain spread of Islam. However, neither Portugal nor Spain was interested in John Cabot. They choose he to find the way to Asia-China. In 1497 John Cabot arrived Canada, but he through it is the eastern coast of the Asia. The next year, he arrived the land that is the eastern coast of the America. He report the England king that he found a new territory. The letter he sent to king shows he in order to colony. In fact European's king allow he to exploration in order to territorial expansion. The king wanted to colony in other land. In the middle centre of Europe, there are to many people in one country, so if a country want to develop, he must find the new land for people too live. This is a big problem for the king, so exploration is a good way to realize the information of the world.


Exploration can create conflict and misunderstanding, because exploration is to force-land other countries. In 1534 Jacques Cartier was looking for a passage through or around North America to East Asia, as some had done before him, and many would after him. He just spends twenty days to crossing the Atlantic Ocean. He landed on an island near the coast of Newfoundland, Breton fishermen always came here. He sailed to north and entered the Strait of Belle Isle. He sailed into the Bay of St. Lawrence and west coast of Newfoundland and crossed the Bay to the Magdalene Islands and Prince Edward Island, he think both of them are the part of the mainland. Then he went to Choler Bay. At there he saw 50 canoes filled with Micas Indians. They seemed friendly and greeted him with the words napeu tondamen assurtah (we want to make friendship). The next day French and the Micas traded and celebrated. He also met a fishing party of 200 Huron’s, led by their chief, Donnaconna. His sons, Domagaia and Taignagny, went to France with Cartier to become interpreters. Cartier explored Antipoetic Island and returned to France. When he hard a large river further to the west, he hope it can go to the northeast. He departed on a second voyage in the next year. When he arrived Choler Bay, he land the land. Although the native people doesn’t revolt him, but he also was force-land. If the native people doesn’t want him to land, he will land too, because he doesn’t care about other people, he just want to finished his assignment. Then he will get riches and honor. He will disregard those benefits to all, so the exploration can create conflict and misunderstanding, because exploration is to force-land other countries.


Exploration can create conflict and misunderstanding, because exploration is to plundering the wealth of other countries. When John Cabot arrived the land that is the eastern coast of the America. He report the England king that he found a new territory. He also found many cod fish. He bring many cod fish back to his country. He found these cod fish in the borderline of Canadian, so he bring the cod fish of Canada. His behavior equal to plundering the wealth of other countries. Although cod fish is not expensive object, his behavior also equal to plundering the wealth of other countries. In other way, when Jacques Cartier arrived Anticosti Island he saw the native people’s cloth is different from other countries. All of them wear fur cloth. Fur cloth is very expensive, so Jacques Cartier want to use most easy and cheap way to get in return for fur. They using native people doesn’t have knowledge to cheat them. They use knife to change fur. Native people doesn’t know fur is a rarity and expensive material for make cloth, so they Pleased to accept to this deal. In fact,Jacques Cartier behavior is cheating. He using native people doesn’t know fur is very expensive to cheat native people. His behavior is another way to plundering the wealth of other countries. These bad behaviors are making people anger, so exploration can create conflict and misunderstanding, because exploration is to plundering the wealth of other countries.

Exploration can create conflict and misunderstanding, because exploration is to force-land other countries, because exploration is to plundering the wealth of other countries, because exploration always in order to colony. If exploration is just to know more about our homeland- there won’t have any conflict and misunderstanding, but the problem is the exploration always In order to satisfy private or national desire. Can people or country don’t have desire. No! People is alive because they are have desire. There won’t have human that don’t have desire, so exploration is a way that can satisfy the desire of some people and countries. It is also a way their dream come true. The people have different desire so they do the different work in the exploration. King wanted his country rich and bigger than before, and he has money. He lends money and boat to the explorers. The explorer will make his dream come true. Explorers wanted money and honor, because he doesn’t have money he have to brow the money and boat to make his dream come true. He must finish the assignment that king gave his then he will get what he wants. These bargain constitution the exploration, so the explorations were not dispassion object. The Exploration can create conflict and misunderstanding is a normal object.

What You Think is What You See (Answer)




1. I won't believe it, because I didn't see it by my self. The map is always wrong. The explorer is already prove there wasn't a Northwest Passage.

2. If I am John Cabot, I heard someone told me the Northwest Passage didn't exist. I will very angry and feel unhappy. I will ask that person does he ever been to China? Does he exploration that there wasn't Northwest Passage? If he say no, I will angry to tell him:" If you don't try you have no chance to arrest other. If you don't try you never no the truth. I will react them by go to exploration to prove my opinion.

3.


This picture is the Humphrey Gilbert's world map. He draw the earth like a heart. In the center of the earth, there is a stright line. In the map, the Africa is connect the Europe and Asia. This make me confuse. It must be something wrong in this map, because Africa can't connect Europe and Asia. The second things make me confuse is in the map Asia is close to America!Why?In fact, Asia is far away from America. The South Pole is too big! There are too many mistake inthis map. If someone wants to find a place to use this map, he can't find it.

4. The Northwest Passage suit the goals of the Eurpean explorers because it is the most simple way to go to Asia. If they go to Asia by the Northwest Passage they won't worried about the direction. They just sailing a straight line. Then they will arrived Asia. Northwest Passage suit the goals (agenda) of the Eurpean monarchs because they wanted to get riches, land and other informations quickly.

5. My example of feedback loop: When I'm 5 years old, my mother take me to learn drawing. In fact I didn't have genius of drawing. I 'm not the best student in the drawing class and neither the worst student. Since now it doesn't change. I'm still the medium student in the class. At first I didn't understand why my mother stick to me to learn drawing, but when I feedback I find the answer. My mother don't want me to be a penman, she just wanted me to learn a good behave.

6. I learn a lot in the period of study. I learned 2 explorers: John Cabot and Jacques Cartier. John Cabot is Italian explorer. Jacques Cartier is French Explorer.They are all exploration. They arrived in different parts in Canada. John Cabot is erect a cross, the cross shows he choce the place to colonization. The exploration and colonization almost can't separate from each other. Almost all the exploraionn are order to colonization.
